In the seventh month of the second year of Yonglong, just a month after the wedding in Allure, the emperor's wind disease flared up again, and the imperial physician Li Qianzong prescribed him a prescription to let him recuperate, and the emperor ordered the crown prince Li Zhe to supervise the country.

Li Zhe's luck is good, during the period of imprisonment, the famous generals Pei Xingjian and Cheng Wuting broke the Turkic history and triumphed. Natural disasters such as the Yongzhou typhoon disaster and the Henan and Hebei floods have also been handled by Prime Minister Xue Yuanchao, Cui Zhiwen, Pei Yan and others, and the national security is stable.

Two new well-known bachelors have been added to the Chongwen Hall of the East Palace: Yang Jiong and Song Zhiwen, both of whom have high literary attainments, and Li Zhe has also learned some things under their company and infection, but he is still playful.

In the first month of the second year, the crown princess Wei Xianger gave birth to an imperial grandson in the East Palace, named Li Chongzhao, who was Li Zhe's eldest son.

On the 19th of February, when Li Chongzhao was full moon, the emperor came to visit him in the East Palace, and when he saw that he was healthy and handsome, he was very happy, and announced a general amnesty, changed the yuan to Yongchun, and drank for three days. A few days later, Li Chongzhao was appointed as the emperor's grandson.

Because of the flood in the Guanzhong Plain in this year, and then the drought, locust plague, and plague, there was a famine, and the rice was sold for 300 yuan, and the soldiers of the Guannai Prefecture were scattered to Dengzhou and Suizhou to eat.

On April 3, the emperor and the queen of heaven set out from Chang'an and went to the eastern capital Luoyang to chase food, leaving the crown prince Li Zhe in Chang'an to supervise the country, and ordered Liu Renliang, Pei Yan, and Xue Yuanchao to assist.

After the emperor arrived in the eastern capital, he ordered the general to build the Fengtian Palace at the southern foot of Songshan Mountain.

Li Zhe stayed in Chang'an, his interest was to play, and he pushed the general affairs to the auxiliary ministers, and he often went out to hunt and play, and did not care much about people's livelihood and government affairs. Xue Yuanchao went to the rules and admonished him, and the queen of heaven heard about it and sent a messenger to comfort Xue Yuanchao.

The crown princess Wei Xianger shouldered the important task of revitalizing the big family, and for fear that Li Zhe would follow in Li Xian's footsteps, she repeatedly advised her husband to study seriously, not to be greedy for fun, not to play games, and to devote her mind to governing the country.

But it had little effect, because a mother like the Queen of Heaven, a prime minister like Xue Yuanchao and a bachelor like Meng Lizhen couldn't educate him, so how could Concubine Wei, who was shallow in knowledge, correct him?

Concubine Wei and Shangguan Wan'er are more compatible, the two can talk, and they often meet for banquets together. Concubine Wei asked Wan'er worriedly: "The prince always likes to play games, what's wrong?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er said with a smile: "Crown Princess, please be more tolerant and understanding!" You think, if he takes care of his family, he will ignore his career, and if he cares about his career, he will not care about his family, he will be immature if he is single-minded, he will be a beast if he is rich, he will become a bad person if he has money, and he will be a waste if he has no money! Just a hobby to play games, you better tolerate it! ”

Concubine Wei said, "Hey, where are you?" At this time, Empress Wu called Shangguan Wan'er to go over and have something, and Shangguan Wan'er hurriedly left.

Concubine Wei's third sister, Wei Qiurong, had a Persian cat with long and white fur and eyes like a blue ocean, and Wei Qiurong was very fond of it and regarded it as a treasure.

One day, the Persian cat suddenly disappeared, and Wei Qiurong immediately asked a painter to draw a cat portrait and notified Jingzhao Mansion to find the cat. Jingzhao Mansion hurriedly sent a large number of officials out to look for it, walked all over the streets and alleys, chased after cats when they saw them, but they did not find them for several days.

Sihu joined the army and asked a painter to paint a hundred portraits of Persian cats, and posted them everywhere in the restaurants and streets of Chang'an City, informing the people to find the cat according to the map, and offering a large reward, but still did not find its whereabouts.

Wei Qiurong was furious and said that he would impeach the officials of Jingzhao Mansion, which frightened the chickens and dogs of Jingzhao Mansion, and finally bribed Wei Xuanzhen to persuade his daughter, and this farce of finding cats subsided.

Later, the queen of heaven found out about this and was dissatisfied with the Wei family, thinking that the Wei family loved to betray the public and favor the public. Public power for private use. Wei Xuanzhen wanted to take advantage of Concubine Wei's relationship to be promoted, and instructed her son-in-law to report to the top, but the queen deliberately suppressed and did not approve.

In the first month of the second year of Yongchun, Emperor Li Zhi planned to go to Songshan Fengtian Palace to recuperate, and the queen of heaven came out of Lanfu to accompany the emperor. Although the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, he has recently improved.

The Queen of Heaven missed the pomp and circumstance of Dongyue when he was enshrined in Zen, and encouraged the emperor to enshrine Songshan in the coming year. This time I went to the front station to investigate the possibility of sealing Zen and the route of sealing Zen.

Before the start of the great drive, the Queen of Heaven sent the disciple of Pan Shizheng, the third generation of the Maoshan Sect, Bai Yunzi Sima Chengzhen, to Songshan to pray for blessings and worship Songyue, Shaomu Mountain, Kei Mountain, Guci Mountain and the West Queen Mother Temple, Qimu Temple, Chaofu Temple, and Xu You Temple.

After the start of the big car, the emperor first visited the Luoyang Shangyuan, and the guard of honor was very grand, holding the brilliant neon and cloud flags like the red glow, and everyone covered the mountain peaks like clouds.

The sun came out of the fire palace to dredge the water of the spring cave, and the moon came out of the Qing palace to open the gate of the mountain and rock to welcome the emperor and queen.

When I came to Shaolin Temple, I saw the great virtuous monk turning the prayer wheel, chanting the scriptures loudly, the sandalwood in the incense pavilion was swirling, and the incense clothes were fluttering! Hearing the bell of the temple bell and walking out of the pavilion, the cold wind gently blew his hair, and the long banner fluttered in the light mist!

The Queen of Heaven stood in front of the Buddha Gathering Lotus Pagoda to watch, thinking of the difficulties of Shakyamuni's monasticism in the past, encountering mountain fires and burning Zhiai, and if it was not good, it would be wiped out! After undergoing the test of 9981 difficulties, he finally attained the perfection of his actions and became a Buddha.

If the Buddha sits on the lotus platform without a shadow, the lotus pagoda behind him emits immeasurable light and immeasurable wisdom, and the light shines on the Buddha! It really depends on the holy power of Shakyamuni, the Dharma is boundless, so that people in the world can do good deeds and accumulate virtues!

After the day, I came here to have a fate with the Buddha, and I want to let Princess A-Niang Taiyuan get some blessings and take refuge in my Buddha here! Donating money to build a merit pagoda for Princess Taiyuan can be regarded as a sign of sincerity in taking refuge in the Three Jewels.

But the cold wind blew the branches, whistling non-stop, and the queen of heaven thought that the princess of Taiyuan had nowhere to chase like the Buddha, so she burst into tears and was extremely sad!

Arrived at Songshan Fengtian Palace, settled in the line, the queen of heaven recalled the scenery along the road, wanted to take refuge in the Buddha, touched the scene, wrote a poem "from the Shaolin Temple", to record their sad feelings, poems:

Accompany Luan to the Forbidden Garden, and serve Lan Yu. The clouds are covered with peaks, and the sun is low and the waves are low.

The day palace is sparse and the moon hall is open to the rock. The golden wheel turns to the golden land, and the incense pavilion drags the incense clothes.

The priest groaned lightly and blew his hair, shaking the mist. In the past, the fire was burned, and the mountains were red and wild.

There is no penumbra on the flower platform, and the lotus pagoda has full brilliance. It depends on the benevolence and benevolence of the world.

Benevolence and prosperity are blessed, and they are all taken care of here. The wind and branches cannot be quiet, and how can we chase after weeping blood.

When the long poem was written, the emperor praised it very much. Soon, the governor of Luo, Shi Li Zhongxuan, was appointed as Zong Zhengqing, and Wu Chengsi was appointed as the secretary and supervisor and the chief inspector of the school, Zuo Wei.

In April, Luan Yu returned to the eastern capital from Songshan, and wanted to continue westward to the Fanggui Palace in Mianchi to recuperate and escape the summer, but when he arrived at the Hebi Palace, he encountered continuous heavy rain and returned.

After returning to Luoyang, under the instigation of the Queen of Heaven to seal the five mountains, the emperor issued an edict to seal the Zen Songshan Mountain in the coming year.

Songshan Fengchan takes the crown prince Li Zhe as the sub-dedication, so the prince and Concubine Wei must be summoned to the eastern capital, so who will stay in Chang'an? When the monarch and ministers were discussing, Jiang Yan, the deputy head of the right guard of the East Palace, said that the crown prince Li Zhe also had an eldest son.

The crowd was shocked for a while! Suddenly, I had to report that the prince had an eldest son, and the emperor was overjoyed and asked about the origin of this eldest son, and Jiang Yan said carefully.

Li Chongzhao is Li Zhe's eldest son, so how did this eldest son come about? Who is Li Zhe's eldest son? This matter starts with the first year of the revelation.

On the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival that year, the news of the assassination of the doctor Ming Chongyan came, and after the British King Li Zhe heard the news in the middle of the night, he was so frightened that he hugged the maid Zheng Dongxiang, shivered, and did not dare to sleep. Zheng Dongxiang comforted him, had a relationship with him, and gave birth to his eldest son, Li Chongfu, in the spring of the following year.

Therefore, Li Chongfu wants to be two years older than Li Chongzhao, and he is Li Zhe's eldest son. Li Zhe was not mentally prepared for Li Chongfu's birth, and he did not report it in time, so Li Chongfu was not knighted for several years.

Next, King Li Zhe was made the crown prince and married Wei Xianger as the crown princess. For the sake of her own interests, Concubine Wei also suppressed the news of her eldest son Li Chongfu and did not report it.

Poor Zheng Dongxiang washes her face with tears every day, sighing in vain! If she was born noble and was named a princess, she would be the crown princess now, and she would be able to honor the world in the future! It's a pity that she came from a humble background, even if she took the lead in giving birth to a son for the prince, she couldn't change anything, she had no fate, this is fate!

Now that the upright Jiang Yan has pierced this layer of window paper, the emperor is still very relieved to know the news of the belated eldest son, so the problem of staying in Chang'an will be naturally solved.

In July, Li Chongfu, the three-year-old imperial grandson, was named the king of Tangchang County. The twenty-one-year-old prime minister Li Dan was renamed King Yu, and he will also be enshrined in Zen.

In September, because the emperor was about to seal the Songshan Mountain, he summoned the crown prince Li Zhe to go to the eastern capital, leaving Li Chongfu, the king of Tangchang County, to stay in Chang'an, the capital of Beijing, and appointed Liu Renliang as the deputy guard.

The queen of heaven received a report from his subordinates that the merit pagoda of the princess of Taiyuan in Shaolin Temple had not been completed, and it had been eight months. The queen of heaven sadly wrote a vow, hoping to end this merit before the 14th day of September, the death of A-Niang.

The Queen of Heaven sent her nephew, Wu Sansi, the general of the Right Guard, to Shaolin Temple to supervise the construction and donated gifts such as gold and silver, silk and silk to Shaolin Temple. On the thirteenth, the merit pagoda was finally completed, and the merit was completed. He also erected the monument of "The Imperial Wish of the Queen of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty".

In October, the crown prince Li Zhe arrived in the eastern capital of Luoyang to meet with the emperor and empress. At the end of the month, the emperor and queen went to Fengtian Palace in Songshan to recuperate. However, on November 3, he issued an edict to seal Zen Songshan for the following year, because the emperor's illness worsened.

The emperor was dizzy and couldn't see clearly, so he summoned the imperial physician Qin Minghe for treatment. Qin Minghe knew that his predecessors Zhang Wenzhong and other famous doctors were helpless, so he dared to say: "The slight bleeding from the prickly head can be cured." ”

The Queen of Heaven said in the curtain: "If you say something like this, you can be beheaded, Imperial Doctor Qin, how dare you prick blood on the head of the Son of Heaven?" How did the divine doctor Hua Tuo die, do you know? ”

Qin Minghe kowtowed and asked: "The minister knows how Hua Tuo died, he wants to operate on Emperor Wei Wu's head, use hemp boiling anesthesia, and perform major craniotomy surgery, so he angered Emperor Wei Wu!" Chen is just acupuncture, there is no danger! ”

The Emperor said, "Hey, don't talk nonsense, I have a lot of headaches, and you're still raising the bar!" Just prick the blood, it may not be bad! So Qin Minghe stabbed the emperor's Baihui and Brain Household two acupoints, and the emperor said, "My eyes are bright." ”

The queen of heaven raised her hand to increase her forehead and said, "What a blessing from heaven!" "Personally took out a hundred colored satin horses to give Qin Minghe.

On the 15th, Li Zhe was edicted to supervise the country, with Pei Yan, Liu Qixian, Guo Zhengyi and Donggong Pingzhang. On the 24th, the emperor and the queen of heaven returned to the eastern capital from Songshan, and hundreds of civil and military officials lined up in the south of Tianjin Bridge to greet Luanyu.

On December 4, the Yuan Hongdao was changed and amnesty was granted to the world. The emperor wanted to personally ascend the Zetian Gate Tower to announce the pardon, but he was so angry that he could not get on the horse, so he had to summon the people to read it in front of the Qianyuan Palace.

At the end of the ceremony, the emperor's eyes were blurred and he could not see anyone near him, so he asked his courtiers, "Are the common people happy?" ”

The courtiers said, "All the people are glad that they have been forgiven!" ”

The emperor said, "Although the common people are happy, my life is in danger." If the gods of heaven and earth prolong my life for a month or two, they will have to return to Chang'an, and there will be no hatred in death! "That night, the emperor collapsed in the Zhenguan Hall of Ziwei Palace.

Before the big trip, the emperor left a testament: "Seven days after the funeral, the crown prince is located in front of the coffin." The garden system is based on frugality. Those who do not make decisions about military affairs will be punished by the queen of heaven. ”
